Fallen beings who avoid taking embodiment

Question: There are fallen beings in the emotional, mental, identity realms that avoid taking embodiment, because they know that once they are in the physical body they can’t escape the consequences of what happens to them. How does the law of karma apply to them and what actually are the forces or the laws that cause somebody to come into embodiment?

Answer from the Ascended Master Mother Mary through Kim Michaels. This answer was given at a conference in Holland in 2017.

Mother Mary: Well, free will always plays a role, my beloved. Even a fallen being has some free will but there will come a point where a being can make so much karma that it cannot avoid taking embodiment.

What the fallen beings have learned to do is that they sort of, as we have said before, dodge their karma in the sense that they managed to make other people take on part of the karma. This can happen if a fallen being in embodiment, just to give an example, manages to get an entire nation to go to war and feel and buy into the ideology behind it, so that they take on themselves some of responsibility for going to war. Then, the fallen being will not have the full amount of its karma to carry, because some of it goes on the people.

This also applies to some beings in the higher realm. They have managed to project their karma, get other people or other beings to take on their karma, so they can avoid taking embodiment. They can avoid coming to that point where they have to take the embodiment. Now, this can be postponed for some time but it cannot be postponed indefinitely.

There are, however, some beings, especially those in the identity realm, who are still in the fallen consciousness but they are not aggressive. They are not seeking to manipulate people in the physical universe so they are coming at it from a slightly different standpoint. They have found another excuse for not transcending the fallen consciousness and they are not necessarily projecting this upon large numbers of people. In that case, they are not karmically required to take embodiment and they choose not to do so. They actually do not want to be stuck in the physical octave because they realize how difficult it is to avoid consequences.
